governor brown vetoed both the trust act and the domestic worker's bill last week, how do you feel about those pieces of legislation which are critical to the immigrant community? >> i think that the problem that the governor articulated with the trust act is the one that i just articulated two questions ago, it excludes large categories of serious crimes from the purview, meaning that people from the members of the gangs and convicted as such as well as other serious victim naturals are under the purview of the trust act and not subject to deportation, i think that it is wrong and ignores the rights to the citizens. >> with regard to the domestic workers i am an attorney who helps workers, and enforce their rights on the federal and state law and i think that it is important that those rights be respected. he posed the question to the authors of that law in vetoing it as to what is the impact going to be on some of the elderly and the sick who rely on home care workers in particular, and i guess the governor, a democrat found that legislation to be too broad, too enerous and em posing m

governor brown does. the elected legislators do. that's the difference. molly munger is very well intended, i think. prop 38 is well intended. i can see myself supporting it at another time. but governor brown was elected in 2010 by an overwhelming margin, outspent by meg whitman. now, it doesn't mean that he's a king or that any of us are, you know, have our final say, but he puts a balanced tax measure before the voters, proposition 30, that helps public education, but also balances the budget. you expect the other side, the tax payers association, the republicans, to oppose it. but you don't expect it from miss munger, and i must say, the only reason she can do this is because she's a wealthy person who can write a big check. now, i kind of go back to the basics of representative government. imperfect? no question about it. but in choosing between the two, i ask voters to look at two things. number one, the fact that prop 30 balances the budget and helps education, but also the munger initiative in some ways represents, to me, the initiative process ru
